Cs2U(Si2O5)3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmc2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Cs1+ sites. In the first Cs1+ site, Cs1+ is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to eleven O2- atoms. There are a spread of Cs–O bond distances ranging from 3.32–3.71 Å. In the second Cs1+ site, Cs1+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of Cs–O bond distances ranging from 3.23–3.44 Å. U4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form UO6 octahedra that share corners with six SiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 2.24–2.28 Å. There are four inequivalent Si4+ sites. In the first Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one UO6 octahedra and corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 33°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.60–1.64 Å. In the second Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one UO6 octahedra and corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 48°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.62–1.64 Å. In the third Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one UO6 octahedra and corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 34°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.61–1.65 Å. In the fourth Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one UO6 octahedra and corners with three SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 29°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.61–1.65 Å. There are ten inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Cs1+, one U4+, and one Si4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one U4+ and one Si4+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two Cs1+ and two Si4+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two Si4+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Cs1+, one U4+, and one Si4+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two Si4+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Cs1+ and two equivalent Si4+ atoms. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Cs1+, one U4+, and one Si4+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Cs1+ and two equivalent Si4+ atoms. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Cs1+ and two Si4+ atoms.
